(Free Beacon) Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D., Ill.) on Saturday gave Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) some pushback after she suggested some critics were “weaponizing” anti-Semitism to silence her.
Both female Democrats appeared on CNN’s Van Jones Show together, where they had a dialogue about the dangers of anti-Semitism and bringing Muslims and Jews together.
“I want to say there are people who are genuinely interested in fighting anti-Semitism,” Omar said. “Then there are those who are interested in weaponizing anti-Semitism to shut down debate on whatever they might not agree on and vilify anybody that they may not want to have any kind of platform to have influence.”
